Why I Created This Guide
After teaching middle school art for more than 15 years, I realized new art teachers don't need more Pinterest inspiration. They need practical systems that actually work.
I created this guide to share the planning tools I wish I'd had during my first year teaching.
Hi! I'm Heather
The artist and educator behind Deanosaur.
I taught middle school art, leadership, and STEAM for over 15 years, creating practical resources that save teachers time while keeping classrooms creative, structured, and engaging.
I'm excited you're here!
I hope this guide helps you start the school year with confidence.
